To consider Risa evil or not really depend on what happened two years ago and if you believe her or not. If you believe her then she's not really eveil but if you don't then she is. Personnaly, I don't think it's a lie mainly because this episode is called "Truth".

Even if you believe her, she is, at the very least, severely misguided. Couldn't she have settled everything years ago?

Futhermore, for me it's really strange for this girl (Makihara)to talk so casually to Junichi.

...but you should probably set up a code with Risa...like..randomly walk up to her and tell her "45-12-11" ..then walk off. She'd be confused, but knowing Risa, she'd totally remember it if it was from her stalkee. Then have a lock on your window. She'd be like.."uhh...idk the combination...*realization* HOLY CRAP HE TOTALLY TOLD ME THE CODE!!!!"

...then she unlocks the window, follows the "no pants" rule, and snuggle into bed with me...ahhh.........then she'd be hella confused and angry to find Rihoko there..aheh...'

Either way!!! To those saying "Risa is evil" all i have to say is this; Yes and no

As a wise friend told me; Love is a battlefield! You dont play nice in battlefields! You have to TAKE DOWN your enemy! To take down an enemy, you have to use some evil! BUT, she only does these evil things out of LOVE. I believe she follows the "greater good" rule! The greater good means you'll do bad things, for the thing that's MOST important! She doesn't focus on little goals, no...no she focuses on her BIGGEST goal, and that goal is to get with her man! therefore, causing her sabotage raids to be activated.

My friend and I have 2 different opinions in the women in Amagami. He loves Tsukasa, and I love Rihoko. meaning;

his #1 is Tsukasa
my #1 is Rihoko.

Someone on here told me that those two were THE COMPLETE OPPOSITES, and i couldn't agree more. However, this is another feeling me and my friend have.

Risa is BOTH our #2. So we sat down and pondered over this while watching the episode a second time...then we had a realization. Risa is 2 way mixture of both Rihoko and Tsukasa! We were like "GASP!!!!!!" then we also realized that that's why we bot loved her and put her as our #2.

So this is why, Risa is one of the best in this show. Even if she only had 1 ep. Just think of what we would've felt if they gave her 4 eps like all the other girls! GAAAAAHH!!!! The possibilities are endless!!!

All I know is if I were Junichi, I'd be locking my doors at night with Risa around.

Not only would I not lock it, I'd risk being robbed by not even closing it.

Is it wrong for me to have Risa as my favorite girl of the series? While I can agree with her being misguided, and arguably very selfish, I just can't get over how adorable she is. And her voice; oh God, that voice. She was also the most appealing character visually to me. Absolutely gorgeous hair.

Moving on to some final thoughts on this series. It had its ups and downs. They started off strong, I thought, with some originality and a mesmerizing female lead, but the show didn't consistently keep this level of greatness. However, especially considering the genre from which it hails, I thought it was a good show all around. Even when it wasn't great, it was still good and enjoyable. The character designs and use of more realistic hair colors really worked for me; there was some subtlety to many of the characters' beauty. They weren't all in-your-face moe. Not that I have anything against conventional moe designs, but it's refreshing to see something different once in a while.

Haruka was the "bait" for this series. In fact her arc had the highest rating in the series(episode 3 is 3.4%) and the lowest was during Rihoko's arc *facepalm...poor Rihoko T_T

I'm just having fun with this, believe me - I don't take that episode too seriously. I just find humor in how readily people are forgiving some pretty aberrant behavior because she's cute (not least Junichi himself). If nothing else she let him suffer and be a loner for two years because she didn't tell him what Makihara had planned for him - and that's a best-case scenario for what she did. Given that she spent the next two years playing a game of deception and destroying any social life Junichi might have had, I'm not sure why anyone would assume she's capable of telling the truth about anything.

I'm not saying she's Yuno Gasai, really just having a laugh - this isn't that kind of story. But Yuno's pretty cute, too...
